Over the years I've been "in love" a number of times and as I look back I find that no two times were the same - but I do see a few trends and some changes that were a result of previous good/bad experiences.
Also - the things that have "made me fall in love" tended not to be the things that made me stay in love. For example, with my third wife, a big part of the reason I fell in love with her was her radiance - she radiated energy, sexual prowess, confidence, and so much more. But as I grew to know her better, it was the similarities in values that was the major bonding factor.

Read Proverbs 31. If you find a virtuous woman send her my way. 
Proverbs 31:10 (KJV)
10: Who can find a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubies.

If she's reasonably intelligent, good looking, strong minded, gifted, and can tolerate ME, that about does it at this point in my life. At my age I need to get married...now.

Read Genesis 19. If you find a salty woman send her my way.
Genesis 19:26 (KJV)
But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.
She would be dead.

Really? I think its the opposite of that..
Any girl can go to the gym, start a diet and tan.. Not every girl is capable of having an awesome personality or being smart... :2 cents:
Don't feel like you have a "deadline" to get married or to settle down..
That's what society wants you to think but why rush? If you feel like you HAVE to get married and start having kids etc etc, then you're most likely going to end up with the wrong person, which means you'll more than likely end up in a divorce. Don't rush, the right person is out there for you and everything will fall into place when the time is right!

Maybe I'm just really shallow? :dunno:
Beauty and a great body can mask intelligence and personality deficiencies.
No it can't, and you don't even believe that. You would never date an idiot, doesn't matter how hot she was. You'd have some spanky fun, then you'd move on.

All valid points. I always think of my grandfather, who didn't get married and have my dad and uncle until he was in his 40s. I have at least a decade. I'll know I'm in trouble when I start frequenting those cheesy dating websites trying to find a match.
I know it makes me a bad person, but these help:

I agree with you, to a certain extent. While I don't think that people should be pressured into getting married because that is what society expects (you, of all people, know that), I don't think that one should wait eternally for that "perfect" person to materialize one day. If that's what someone is waiting for, he'll be waiting for a LONG time.
My mom's best friend decided not to rush into getting married, but instead she chose to wait for the perfect guy to come along. Now, the woman is in her late 50's, and she never married because she never found the perfect guy.
The older a person is, the more entrenched he is in his ways, and the harder it is to find someone who will fit the mold perfectly. The "perfect" person, I believe, is someone who you love, and who loves you, and both are committed to each other enough to make certain changes for the good of the relationship. I don't mean that one should make drastic changes that would, in effect, change his or her being for another person, but something that shows that the other person is important. For example, if a guy religiously goes to his friend's house on Sundays to watch football, but he knows that it annoys his girl, he could resolve to stop going to his friend's house on Sundays and spending more time with his girl. Things like that show love more than empty words. Changing habits is definitely easier at a younger age than at an older age.
The perfect age for someone to get married is somewhere between 25 and 28. At that age you're still young, but you have enough life experience to avoid making juvenile mistakes.

Heh... I met my current boyfriend on one of those cheesy dating websites.. :o
I agree with you on pretty much all aspects but I don't believe that there is a "perfect age" for people to get married.. I don't even believe people have to get married at all.. It's just another way to conform to what society says is the right way to live.. If two people want to be together than they should just be together.. Without feeling pressure to "settle down".. I personally want to spend as much time as I can NOT settled down.. In fact I want to spend the next 8-10 years being as unsettled as I can.. (I'm lucky enough to have found someone who shares my views on this so I can spend my days being happily unsettled with someone special..)

Hahah just my :2 cents:
Haha, well, I have friends that use them too, and pretty sure one of my sisters is using them now too. Which one do you use? Is Match any good? I am literally about to try them out just for the eff of it.
